Unicorn Song

A long time ago when the earth was green,There was more kinds of animals than you'd ever seen.They'd run around free while the earth was being bornBut the loveliest of them all was the unicorn.

There was green alligatorsAnd long necked geeseSome humpy back camelsAnd some chimpanzeesSome cats and rats and elephantsbut sure as you're born, the loveliest of all was the unicorn.

Now God seen some sinnin'And it gave Him pain.He said, "Stand back!I'm gonna make it rain."He said, "Hey, Brother Noah,I'll tell you what to do,Build me a floating zoo.

And take some of themGreen alligators and long necked geeseSome humpy back camels and some chimpanzeesSome cats and rats and elephantsBut sure as you're bornDon't you forget my unicorns."

Old Noah was there to answer the call.He finished up making the arkJust as the rain started to fall.He marched in the animals two by twoAnd called out as they went through,"Hey, Lord, I've got your green alligators,And long necked geeseSome humpy back camels and some chimpanzeesSome Cats and rats and elephantsBut, Lord, I'm so forlorn, I just can't see no unicorns."

Then Noah looked out through the driving rainThem unicorns were hiding, playing silly gamesKicking and splashing while the rain was pouringOh them silly unicorns.

There was green alligators and long necked geeseSome humpy back camels and some chimpanzeesAnd Noah cried, "Close the door cause the rain is pouring inAnd we just can't wait for no unicorns."

The ark started moving, it drifted with the tide.Them unicorns looked up from the rocks and they cried.And the waters came down and sort of floated them away.And that's why you'll never see a unicorn to this very day.

You'll see green alligators and long necked geeseSome humpy back camels and some chimpanzeesSome cats and rats and elephantsBut sure as you're born, You're never gonna see no unicorns.
